Bishamonten Yokai Samurai Armor Yoroi

A variation of a suit worn by the Daimyo Uesugi Kenshin who ruled Echigo province in the Sengoku period of Japan. He was one of the many powerful lords of the Sengoku period. He was famous for his prowess on the battlefield, his military expertise, his legendary rivalry with Takeda Shingen, and his belief in the Buddhist god of war – Bishamonten. In fact, many of his followers and others believed him to be the avatar of Bishamonten, and called him Kenshin, the god of warriors.

This armor is an authentic reproduction made of iron, steel, leather, cotton, silk and other materials that were traditionally used during the Warring States Period of Japan. Strictly made by hand in the traditional Japanese manner by highly skilled craftsmen. This is a real, life size armor which an average adult (with a height of 5′ 3″ – 5′ 9″ ) can wear and is fully functional. The clamshell dō features a pin hinge under the left armpit which can be removed and a cord can be laced through the hinges to accommodate a larger chest.
